Cooper: Diane, last night I dreamed I was eating a large, tasteless gumdrop, and awoke to discover I was chewing on one of my foam disposable earplugs. Perhaps I should consider moderating my nighttime coffee consumption.

Frances Bay

So I'm watching "Twins", and Arnie gets to the orphanage to dig up info on his brother, and the nun helping him seems familiar. Holy cow, I thinks to myself, is that Mrs. Tremond? (No further explanation needed, right?) I had to look it up, but, yes, indeed, that was she! And she's still working today, in her 90s. And her first role wasn't until she was nearly 60. Wow, that's the role model for me! Of course, digging a little deeper, she did study acting and did some stage and radio work 40 years before she appeared as Mrs. Russel in "Foul Play", but still. Close enough. Look out, Hollywood. In a few years, my teeth will be straight and white (just like me!) and I can start appearing in those really small parts in 3 or 4 movies & tv shows a year. For the next 40 years!
